I Can Tell By The Way You Smell
Ry Cooder

(Walter Davis)



Hey, look here baby, what's going on ?

Step over in the light

Oh, no! Look here.



Your hair is all wrecked, you're full of sweat

Your underskirt is wringing wet

You come in here walking just like a goose

It looks like somebody just tranked you to loose

You've been doing something

You've been doing something wrong

You've been doing something

You've been doing something wrong

I can tell by the way you smell



And there's grandma and grandpa out on the porches

Must be kidding 'bout her ninety years

Ain't too old, God almighty, just keep shifting them gears

Well, you ain't too old, said you ain't too old

Ain't too old, doing the boogie, you ain't too old

I can tell by the way they smell



Well, it's a-run here mama! Just look at little sis'

Got her hand in her toodle, way up to her wrist

She's doing something wrong, she's doing something wrong

She's doing something wrong, God knows she's doing it

I can tell by the way she smell



Go on and change your clothes!
